The force exerted on a spring is proportional to the distance the spring stretches from its relaxed position. Suppose you stretch a spring distance d in inches by applying force F in pounds. For a certain spring, d/F = 0.6 . You apply forces between 30 and 50 pounds, inclusive. Which inequality describes the stretch of the spring?

The acidity of water in a swimming pool is considered normal if the average pH reading is between 7.5 and 7.9 inclusive. The first two readings for a swimming pool are 7.6 and 8.1. What possible values for the third reading p will make the average pH normal?

The value for the third reading must be between 6.8 and 8.0, inclusive.

The value for the third reading must be between 6.5 and 7.8, inclusive.

The value for the third reading must be between 6.9 and 8.1, inclusive.

The value for the third reading must be between 6.7 and 8.2, inclusive.

When a person exercises, the pulse rate rises. Recommended pulse rates vary with age and physical condition. For vigorous exercise, such as jogging, the inequality gives a target range for pulse rate R, based on a age a. 0.7 ( 220 − a ) ≤ R ≤ 0.85 ( 220 − a ) 0.7\left(220-a\right)\le R\le0.85\left(220-a\right) 0 . 7 ( 2 2 0 − a ) ≤ R ≤ 0 . 8 5 ( 2 2 0 − a ) What is the target range for pulse rates for a person 35 years old?Round to the nearest whole number.
